I found this on the internet, so it must be the real deal. The question begging to be answered is: how will this governmentally inspired car design impact the carwash industry?!! JJJ/SSCWN Subject: The Pelosi GTxi SS/RT http://americandigest.org/mt-archives/fish_barrel_bang/the_pelosi_gtxi.php

I think I think that once upon a time, Tom Hoffman had used garage door opener remote control devices to activate services in the bay. If memory serves, Tom had given manager attendants those remotes to start bay services primarily for bay wash downs. JJJ/SSCWN...

Funny you should ask ... In the Fall issue, I just happen to have a feature story about such a wash that was built in Casper, Wyoming early this year. There are quite a few of 'em in Canada, and they're referred to as "wash barns" or "two door washes" --- one door as entrance at which you...

Hiya, Earl: FRP can be purchased in rolls 8'-10' high and in rolls as long as a bay ... or longer. That way there are no seams at all. It gets kinda tricky wrasslin' up onto the wall, but it does get done. There's a nice example of that "uni-body" FRP technique at Spot Not Wash kinda...

Yesterday, the SSCWN received a bulletin from Coleman which read: "Hurricane IKE has come and left the city in shambles, although we have received minor damage we are up and running to serve the car wash industry. "Our buildings and operation are fortunate to have electricity, phone service...

I believe that maybe, just maybe, Paul has fallen into the misconceived stereotype that Conservatives are necessarily rigidly judgmental Christian Right types who want to impose their strict moral/cultural code on others. While that profile certainly fits some under the Conservative tent, it...

Far be it from me to define your political identity, Paul, but I do not ever recall hearing a Libertarian say he was not Conservative. As I have always understood, Libertarians are uncompromising, principled, "arch" Conservatives ? toward the "Far Right" and the direction toward which I'm...

IMO, Harry Truman's story is relevant to the recent tack of this thread ... even tho' it's probably a better fit with some others in this section of the Forum. Regardless, I'm here now, sooooo .... Harry never took an IQ test ... he did not even go to college. Instead, he worked a small...

Hmmm ... I do not see the photo successfully "attached" to my post above. So I'll try, try again ... JJJ/SSCWN

Heeding the advice and immortal words of Pee Wee Herman ? "take a picture ... it will last longer" ? here's my photographic "immortalization" of the Forum party in Orlando. Have fun matching poster "handles" to mugs in that shot --- a wide angle pic which, BTW, is actually a computer "stitch"...

Virtually "everybody" that I've talked to says they're going to shop for credit card acceptance systems. JJJ/SSCWN

I'd like to crank up this thread again ... even tho' it piggybacks and dovetails on the more recent "Taking Cash" thread. I had a multi wash absentee operator contact me with a tale of woe. He discovered that the proverbial "trusted family member" he had hired as manager for all his washes...

Okay, the horses are out of this barn, but allow me to toss in a 2 word suggestion: "tag cam" JJJ/SSCWN __________________________ The poster formerly known

Those who just cannot get enough Winter carwash shows (ICA and/or Regionals) can breathe a sigh of relief. Why? Cuz Modern Car Care is hosting its own tabletop show at the Venetian in Las Vegas February 7-8. JJJ/SSCWN
